Phantom

You don't see me
 But I creep into your veins
 You don't know me
 But you can feel your heart cracking
 You don't know who I am
 But you know I'm there
 The best kept secret is the one that
 Kills
 Oh, she's a deadly weapon
 So much power at her disposal
 Why should it worry you?
 How can you bet against such a threat that is
 Invisible, inconceivable
 Hate me, never know me
 Do what I do then maybe
 You'll be in my shoes
 Walk beside me, not on me
 I keep my distance
 I'll break you before you ever touch me
 Walk beside me, not on me
 You kept your distance so now
 Get the fuck over it!
 I see your words floating
 But your mouth is trapped shut
 Your teeth are grinding
 But you manage a smile
 Wish you could see me choking the throat you wish to caress
 You wanted to be the one but you're not even second best
 Oh, she's the blade that haunted you
 Infiltrated your dreams you couldn't even
 Sleep at night
 You thought she would never come
 I'm not the one to blame, do you even have any shame?
 You walked on fire now you can't even handle the stake
 And take
 To do what it takes
 What's at stake
 What do you have to lose?
 Your pride?
 Some sentimental thing inside?
 Dignity?
 Huh, I don't pity
 What you have to choose
 Out of touch, out of place
 Won't see my face
 I'll break you before you ever touch me
 Walk beside me, not on me
 I've kept my distance, so now
 Get the fuck over it!
